A Wife's War - A return to Woodicombe House

A return to Woodicombe House...
Kate Channer thought married life was going to be a grand adventure. But when Luke must go off to war before the echoes of their vows have ended, she's left behind, desperate to do something to make a difference and help bring him home.
Yet life in Devon and London spent as lady's maid to her half-sister, Naomi, brings battles of its own. Facing hardship and heartbreak they never imagined, Kate and Naomi must now find the strength to keep the home fires burning through the long uncertain months of a wife's war.

About the author

Inspired by the Malory Towers and St. Clare's novels of Enid Blyton, Rosie spent much of her childhood either with her nose in a book or writing stories and plays, enlisting the neighbours' children to perform them to anyone who would watch.
Professional life, though, was to take her into a world of structure and rules, where creativity was frowned upon. It wasn't until she was finally able to leave rigid thinking behind that she returned to writing, her research into her ancestry and a growing fascination for rural life in the nineteenth century inspiring and shaping her early stories.
She now resides with her husband in North Devon - the setting for the Woodicombe House Saga - where she enjoys the area's natural history, exploring the dramatic scenery, and keeping busy on her allotment.
